Ranchi: The Enforcement Directorate on Wednesday conducted searches at various locations linked to Jharkhand Congress MLA from Hazaribagh Amba Prasad, in cases related to an alleged land and transfer-posting scam. After the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) raided her Jharkhand home on Tuesday, Congress MLA Amba Prasad said the BJP had approached her about contesting from Hazaribag in the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections, which she declined.
According to ANI sources, the BJP had approached Amba Prasad to contest from Hazaribag in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. She expressed her ordeal during the ED’s search operation, stating that she was forced to stand still for hours. Additionally, she mentioned that the BJP also offered her the Hazaribag Lok Sabha ticket, which she turned down.
“A lot of individuals from the RSS side also put pressure on me to run from Chatra. I also disregarded that. They view me as a very formidable contender in Hazaribag because to our consistent victories in Barkagaon seats. Our party is the Congress, not the BJP. So simple to hit,” she remarked.
